The rodoiiaa Race OF Cattle.

American Agriculturist: The Sc
conpanying illustrations SHOW q typical
COW and bull of the RAGS known Us the
Podolian. They are the direct de-
scendants of the hos primogenius which
roamed the Sarmatian forests during
the time of the Roman empire. In
their modern form, somewhat improy-
ed by breeding and care, they are very
numerous throughout southern and
eastern Europe, from the Island OF
Sicily to the Ural. The famous white
cattle of C~hiilingkam, the seat of the
Earl OF Tankerviile, are the only known
descendants of this race on the British
islands, and generations of breeding
under varying environments has pro-
duced visible differences of type be-
tween them and their kindred Oh the
continent. In color these cattle are
white or silvery gray, the mouth, nos
triis, and inner edge of the eyelids
black. The tail termines in q black
"brush.n The horns are 3 yard or
more in length, taptring, glossy, white
for the lower ~two-thirds, with black
tips. THE eyes are almond shaped, set
back toward the cheeks, bright ana
viyacious. The neck is strong. and
the head carried high. They are
strong, active ana hardy, and make
admirable working oxen. The males
weigh from fourteen 10 eighteen hun
tired. They mature slowly, but, VIXEN
fully grown, they fatten easily, the
beet beng Of good quality, and finely
maIbied, The milking qualities OF the
cows have never been developed, and
they have very little value for the dairy.

A PUBLIC PAWNSHOP.

Synopsis of the Bill to BE Introduced in
the Illinois Legislature Establishing
Pawners' Banks In Cities of the State
CHICAGO, Jan. 1S.-The committee OF the
Citizens Association having In charge the
establishment of Pawners' Bank in Chi
cago met on Saturday afternoon, with
Comptroller Schwab in the chair. 1t
was decided to authorize James w. Beach,
attorney of the association, to draft q
bill for presentation to the Legislature
providing for the establishment of such
banks in all the cities Of the State. The
bill will be general in its character, and
will limit the capital of each bank from
$4,000 to 81 ,0O0 900. When this act is passed
the Chicago corporation will obtain a
charter, and proceed at once to take stock
subscriptions and open an Office. The
bank, when started, will loan money to
any needy applicant who has col
laterals to offer in the shape Of
jewelry, household goods, or any other
species Of personal property. The interest
charged will be moderate, and every per-
son hypothecating any article will be re-
quired to prove the ownership of the prop
erty and to be fully identified. It is the
intention of the organizers of this bank to
prevent the pawnbrOkers from charging
ruinous rates of interest, and TO effectual-
" prevent the pawning of stolen goods.
